  People say Joe's new house is haunted. Every night, he looks for the shadow on the attic stairs. Sometimes he thinks he can see it, sometimes he knows he can't. He tells himself that he isn't scared and wishes he could get the idea that it is evil out of his mind. But he never suspects that something much worse than seeing a strange shadow is about to happen...Barrington Stoke specialise in books for reluctant, struggling and dyslexic
